Re: Moses Kinvig b 1859
In Response To: To JeanC re Kinvigs ()

Hi Kay

Moses Kinvig b 1859 seems a bit of a mystery. I can't see a marriage for him to Margaret Skelly, but there's the birth entry for Maggie in 1888 to parents Moses Kinvig and Margaret Skelly, with no other children listed for these parents.

By the 1891 census, there's no Moses Kinvig on the IOM and none that I can find in England, so I wonder whether he may have emigrated with wife and Maggie. I can't find any burial for Moses in the IOM.

I'd like to think that this could turn out to be "my gt aunt Nellie's friend, Maggie Kinvig". More sleuthing required.
